ABOUT SPECTACLES.
People Not so Timid About Wearing Thorn
as They Used to BE.

81 do not think that eye troubles are
on the increase" said dealer in
optical goods, although the demand
for spectacles is greater in proportion
than the growth of population. The
reason for the increase is that people
have less timidity about using specta-
cles There is an impression, not yet
effaced, that the use of spectacles once
begun can never be laid aside. This
is not true. The fact is that a person
who really ought to use spectacles by
putting off the adoption of them only
necessitates the wearing of higher
number when he does put them on;
whereas, if he had worn spectacleS in
time he might have so nursed his ocular
strength as to discard them at pleasure.

"Are not eyeglasses very often worn
when there is no real need for them?"
"Quite likely they are" replied the

Eyeglasses does not keep up in the

THE HIGHEST SUCCESS.
The Kind of Life Which Can Not BE De.
feated by Outward Disasters.

There is nothing more inspiring than
the story of u triumphant life; life
that oyercomes great difficulties, works
itself clear of sharp limitations. and
issues at last in q large. free activity.
1t is an old story, but it remains the
one story of which men never tire. but
which seems to assuage thirst of the
soul. For the end of life is freedom
and power, and those of lis who miss
these supreme results of patience and
toll apd character feel that we have
been defrauded of that which was our
due. The old stories of magic carry a
deep meaning under their wild eXtrav-
agances; they betray the mighty pas
sion of men for supremacy over things
material and over inferior orders Of
life. The man with genii at his COM
mand could build palaces in q night,
and rejoice in a marvellous mastery
over the forces against which so many
of his fellows seem to measure their
strength in vain These magical sue
cesses are only dreams of the real sue
cesses which all men andwOmen crave;
which the noblest and most aspiring
must conquer. or lose utterly the Joy
and sweetness of living. These suc-
cesSes are. fortunately. not external,
though they are generally accom-
panied by visible trophies; they arc
achievements of character, and are in
dependent of conditions aud largely of
human recognition. The man whose
life, outwardly all defeat, is steadily
expanding in its interest and sympa-
thies, steadily growing in power to
bear and suffer and be strong, has the
blessed consciousness of coming into
his kingdom. No outward disaster, no
external obstacle or Limitation, can
ever defeat q true life; it can escape
all these things rs the bird escapes the
perils Of the snare and the net by fly
ing above them. This highest OF all
successes lies within the grasp of every
earnest man and woman, and it is
rarely without attestations of its pres
ence and value, even in the eyes of
those who take small account of
spiritual things There is a force which
streams from q noble nature which is
as irresistible and pervasive as the
sunlight. The warmth and the vitality
of such natures. while they invigorate
the strongest men and women about
them, penetrate to the heart of cloudcd
and obscure lives, and minister to their
need There is no success 50 satisfying
as that which is embodied in ones
character, and so can not be taken
from him, and the influence of which,
embodied in the character of others, is
also indestructible. Christian Union

ROTATION OF CROPS.
Some New Light on AN Agricultural Topic
of Great Interest.

Some New Light on an Agricultural Topic
of Great Interest.
Perhaps this subject ongrossos tn"
mind of the farmer us much as any
other connected with his business.
Many articles have been written on the
subject, published in the agricultural
journals, and discussed by the readers,
and yet. to-day, many farmers arc UNI
decided as to which is the most success
full course for them to pursue In
selecting course for myself | bore in
mind the fact that manure was OF the
most Importance on the corn and root
crops, from the fact that the roots of
corn 20 deeper than those of other
crops in my rotation. / therefore start
ont with corn the first year with all the
manure, spread from the wagon, (not
dumped in piles to leach out for a
month or more, and then scattered) be-
fore blowing. Then after corn has
been gathered I pillow in the fall, if
weather will permit, and SOW in the
spring to oats. After this crop is off,
| seed it to wheat and clover. After
allowing it to remain in clover two
years | put it into wheat a second time,
allowing all the fall crop of clover to
remain and be turned in, and after
wheat this time, | return to corn rs in
the start.
BY this system, as the manure is
turned under for corn, its roots gcner-
ally find a portion, and when the piece
l. plowed for oats the rest of the ma
nure comes to the surface to benefit the
oats. After the wheat. which follows
oats, the clover sowed with or upon it

the whole, in a series of Years, Ibelicve
the additional quantity of wheat result

will overbalance the clover seed crop.

potatoes should be planted deep. By
making four or five hills of potatoes AT
the ends Of corn rows it is better &c
turn the team upon in cultivating.
This system is based upon the fact
that the roots of corn and potatoes &C

great depth. Consequently by the

suPERsrlrlous TERROR.
The Power 1t May Exert Upon the Strength
and Even Life of Man.


The Power 1t May Exert Upon the Strength
and Even Life of Man.
One of the survivors of an early
Polar expedition lately told an incident
which illustrates the power which
superstitious terrors may exert upon
the strength and even life of man.
One of the strongest and most hopeful
members of the expedition was young
Scotchman. The party was obliged to
spend the second winter on the ice;
the rations were low, and many of the
men already had died of scurvy and
cold.
C., the Edinburgh man, though
weak, was the life of the party. His
joke and laugh never failed. One
night, after they had shifted camp to a
new place, he said: 81 am sure to go
back home. An old Gypsy read my
fortune ten years ago l am to die in
Van Dieman's Land, and it's many G
league from here to there"
mot so far" said one of his com.
panions. "The captain named this
place Demons Land this morning.
That is near enough for your pur.
pose"
The Scotchman laughed uneasily.
But from that moment he gave up all
energy and hope. In twenty-four
hours he was dead. Cold and hunger
did their part. But it was fear that
killed him at last.
Among the records of Westinghouse
campaign of 1777 well accredited
story is told of a young English officer,
Lord Percy, who served under Corn
wallis. On riding to the crest of the
hill which overlooked the Brandywine,
he suddenly checked his horse and
looked about him in silence for few
moments. He then said to friend;
81 dreamed of this place before / left
England. l saw it all, in every detail.
shall die here" He called his serv-
ant, and gave him his money, watch
and a message for his mother. He was
one OF the first men to fall IN the en-
gagement. The coincidence was singu-
lar. But when we consider that prob
ably ninety men in every hundred &C
into battle believing that they shall
fail in it, the proof of the truth of pre-
sentiments is not established by one 0l
two fulfilled premonitions.
No record is preserved of the case!
in which very strong preSentiment is
followed by events which bear no re
semblance TO those anticipated. These
nevertheless, constitute so large pro
portion OF the whole that when thu
matter is viewed merely as q problem
of chances. it is extremely improbable
that any particular prescntiment vii
be fulfilled. Youths Companion.
